Abstract excerpt
Anthracnose, caused by Colletotrichum dematium, has emerged as a major foliar disease that threatens spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) production. In this study, a diverse panel of 266 accessions was evaluated under field conditions to dissect the genetic architecture of anthracnose resistance. Substantial phenotypic variation was observed, with disease severity indices (DSIs) ranging from 1 (highly resistant) to 10...
